An F16 fighter pilot perspective on how we can achieve business agility at scale using fighter pilots ideas about decentralization, planning, mutual trust and organizational structure. Air combat and product development have more in common then you might think. F16 pilots are planning and executing under extreme uncertainty and in complex environments, just like we are in business and product development. Fighter pilots have thought long and hard about how to solve some of the same issues we are struggling within the agile world. Fast feedback, OODA loop, self-organization, mutual trust, decentralizing without sub-optimizing…This talk will inspire you to see your familiar problems in a new perspective, so you can hopefully find new and better solutions.

My talk from GOTO confrence 2017 is now availavle. Its about the challenges we experience when Scrum is installed only on the team level of a classical hierarchical organisation, and a fighter pilots perspective on how the SAFe framework suggest we fix those organisationel bugs.
